Hi, have SE renamed their firmwares?
Just plugged my k850 in seus (R1EA037) into seus and it says, update
"k850 Nordic CDF 1201-0071".
Posted by Raaab
Same here, looks like new UK Vodafone LIVE! firmware available too, with a different reference:
K850 VFE-LIVE-A CDF1202-7131
will install and see what it says...
Posted by aremaboy
CDF seems the same as CDA..
Let's see what firmware update you get. Please inform here.
Posted by Raaab
will do. Its flashed, its just taking ages to reboot.
Its stuck on a cyan and grey screen, with a blue progress bar saying "please wait".....
not looking too great
.....
Posted by Raaab
OK, it took about 5 minutes to boot and finalise - I seriously thought it was hosed.
Firmware = R1FA035
nothing groundshaking, but about time we had it on VF UK.

for all those that don't know, apparently there is a new version of xs++ (4.1). so for those wanting to flash and customize thier phones for free you wont have to wait for long. The version is out now for linux but they will be coming out with a windows version soon.
Here's the source:

Then why did they release it!?
The whole purpose of the new XS++ was to have DB3150 support o0!
Posted by Raiderski
right now main purpose is to make XS++ cross-platform and compatible with CID53. support for DB3150 is planned AFAIK
Posted by naveensiva

Nice, I checked it out and he has some pretty cool stuff but LCARS on another level IMO.
Well IMO LCARS is about 100 levels below kr8ter.
EG on LCARS phonequake file, he says the fone can only handle 5 pictures, but the kr8ter guy created the ultimate file which can handle alot more files in any picture format, and the file can also change animation.

Posted by Raiderski
I know but remember that XS++ is result of goodwill of it creators and nothing else. it's better to not wait for DB3150 support
Posted by SupermansZ24
I bought the k850i for the modding opportunities. Little did I know afterwards, this platform isn't supported. I have nothing against the guys who develop XS++ as they do it on their free time but it really sucks this phone has so much potential waiting to be unlocked.

It is not possible that a phone launched one year ago continue to have BROD problem...
Posted by si3rra
Well the "k850 Nordic CDF 1201-0071".
was R1FA035
EROM: 1200-4341.
the new thing for me was that the phone was totaly resetted, all user settings removed, and about 4-5 minutes boot time on first start, blue and turquoise screen saying "wait", then same screen "pin code" then themes loading.

We're a month and a half off from the year mark - the phone did not become available until 2nd week of October. Regardless, I don't see another phone that's currently available that I would want to move to. IF the Xperia X1 shows up I might get i depending on price - I do need something that has Full ActiveSync capabilities as the K850 has rather limited use when it comes to secure Exchange environments.... I really hope that SE will fix that with the C905...

Feels like so much longer!
Posted by sniper_supra
Well, the k850's half bad - yes it is. But its not entirely bad IMHO. Just tried LCARSD's Phonequake animations
http://www.trekker-reactor.isq-networks-server.com/se-stuff/
I really like the fade in animation.
--------------------------------------------
Just had a tour last Thursday. Took some photos, and a little too much shake made my photos too blurred and useless. I even had a better photo with the auto-focus off. And the XENON flash is useless if subject is very far or when the background is not too dim/not too lit.
Out of 100 photos, I'd say I rejected 30 of them.
So in my opinion this phone should have had;
a. better/faster processor
b. better/bigger lens
c. better xenon
d. better battery to support a, b, and c
I'm not totally down coz of my K850i (Half down to be specific), but I hope my next cyber-shot phone is way better than this one.

oh, yeah. I just tried that earlier. I guess I was just too lazy to set things up at auto alone. Well, its too late for me now.
Thanks anyway.

took the battery out to change the sim card
and tried turning it back on... shows the lights on the keypad and the ring at the back but just wonr turn on :S
tried reflashing but doesnt connect to the computer...
any ideas?
any help will be goood thanks
ohh and is the samsung omnia worth buying?
Posted by gordonowusu
Your phone has BROD.
Run PC suite and reflash your phone. If your CDA is supported, SUES will reflash it for free. But if it is not supported u need to reflash it via davinci or KK client but u have to pay with a credit card. My K850 is dead too but i dont have a credit card to buy credits so am just waiting for sues to support my CDA.
hope this helps.
cheers

Im having the same problem as above I SOOO TEMPTED to use davinci =(
I recently saw a w11 y08 k850 its completely remade w/ an extra ring on lens of the camera and no booting studders
WOW

Funny how the so called "BROD-free" fw added NOTHING at all, seeing BRODs are still common.
What a joke. I hope SEs profits will keep dropping until they open their eyes

Both are the same. 035 is for unbranded generic, 036 is for 3 Hutch-branded phone.

Not sure if DaVinci supports this but you can try connecting the phone while holding the 2 and 5 keys instead of the C key. I have had to do this on my phone when normal methods failed but that was using SETool. Still worth a try I suppose.

Anyone know if SE is going to give us a final firmware, or do they count 035 as the final?
In my eyes my phone isn't stable yet (restarts now and then), and the musicplayer is just less slow. Not fast.
Why cant they just give us the c902 firmware. It can't be that hard to port the softkeys, lenscover, memoryspot and UMTS bands which is the major differences afaik.
BTW, do anyone know if the flash is broken or the software is bad built if most of the flashpictures is just a white mess/burnt?

ME too. I found out that my media player cannot read ALL of my song folders... I had 1082 songs in my card and tried to add songs into the playlist but could not find them.... BUT I can find them in my normal folder search... Hope theres a newer firmware that can fix this bug and ALL problems featured in this forum solved.(crosses gazillions of fingers)

Hey whats with this negativity air in you??? Is it because you are currently still holding on to Nokia 3310 and wanted another 3310 buddy so you come in and try to influence others to join your gang 3310??
[ This Message was edited by: tai020381 on 2008-08-25 05:34 ]
Posted by sniper_supra
poor 3310 guy. try capturing a good image with your 3310 or maybe try listening to mp3 with your 3310 - perhaps I'd change my mind if ever your 3310 could do that.
haha...
;-P
assh....
Posted by CruSifiXken
Agreed...
But you gotta give it to the guy...
The 3310 is more stable...
Posted by tai020381
The T100 was damn stable too why not recommend that??? Somemore it has got a better design and is LIGHTER than 3310!! Super pissed when new forumers come in telling stuffs like that!~ Did it come across to them that they have to use their brains before commenting??
